Po-tech

Po-tech is slang for “poor tech”— old Earth technology that’s been cobbled together or jury rigged. This includes everything from pistols and machine guns, to shotguns and rocket launchers. Military grade ammunition isn’t too hard to come by, as large stockpiles were left behind after the Pale Wars. And more is being manufactured all the time. Companies like Von Bach Industries have even applied alien technologies to some old Earth standbys, modifying them to use new power sources that can produce toxic, incendiary and even electrical damage.

The Ark core, houses a terraspire - the main vehicle through which the terrasphere helps transform landscapes via terrarforming. The Ark brain, which powers an entire Ark, is an artificial intelligence built into the ship.
